Yeah, I know....) and I want to switch from OpenGL rendering to Hardware or Software rendering, but I don't know where to go to change it. So how do I do it?

So I know what your using it for. I bought Guitar Hero 3 for PC yesterday and it was pretty laggy so I tried turning all the graphics setting down and tried changing the delay, but it's still shitty because when a bunch of notes show up, it studders. So that's what I need it for. And I can't change it in-game because the graphics setting are really elementary on it. I can only change the resolution and 2 other things that don't really matter. warcrack Posted at 2:17 pm on May 19, 2008 Quote: from motorhead at 5:15 pm on May 19, 2008 Quote: from Reece Dodsworth at 5:14 pm on May 19, 2008 humm there should be a prograam with the card you bought... or in a game you might be able to change it that way :)   No, it's different than a graphics setting on a game, it's completely switching over from redering graphics on the GPU to either the CPU or my secondary hard drive. Alright like lets say your playing a game and you want to use opengl, right click on the icon of the game and on the target area add -opengl. http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/4489/photojv3.jpg ^--- Cunning Stunt Posted at 2:15 pm on May 19, 2008 Quote: from Reece Dodsworth at 5:14 pm on May 19, 2008 humm there should be a prograam with the card you bought... or in a game you might be able to change it that way :) No, it's different than a graphics setting on a game, it's completely switching over from redering graphics on the GPU to either the CPU or my secondary hard drive. warcrack Posted at 2:15 pm on May 19, 2008 It depends, normally if your going to run a game, program in Opengl you'd set it to Opengl, so what are you going to be using?
